Palanga’s beaches are definitely one of its main charms.

With white sandy beaches and clear waters, the destination is ideal for a relaxing beach holiday in Lithuania.

Along the beaches, you’ll also find cafes, restaurants, bars and local shops.

You could also head to famous beaches nearby, including Melnrage beach, Sventoji beach and Nida, a UNESCO heritage site.

Besides the great beaches, Palanga has a rich history, with plenty of things to explore.

You could head to the Palanga Amber Museum, which is set in a 19th-century palace near the Baltic Sea.

Another must-see is the Palanga Botanical Park, which spans more than 100 hectares and is home to hundreds of plant species worldwide.

You’ll also find ancient structures, like wooden churches and a manor house from the 19th century.

Palanga is great for a chilled holiday or a relaxing family break.

However, there’s a lively nightlife scene, too, with several bars and clubs open until the early morning hours.

Since the destination isn’t that well-known for Brits, there aren’t many package holidays available.

However, Lastminute.com usually has some good last-minute deals, with prices starting from £290pp.

If you’d rather arrange your travel and accommodation separately, Booking.com has rooms from £25 per night.

And return flights are available from £56pp.

We’ve also revealed five surprisingly great value holiday hotspots where flights in August are still cheap.

As well as the UK beach where it ‘feels like you’re abroad,’ and it’s one of the cheapest places to visit.

And we’ve also found the European island that is the ‘new Mykonos’ but with cheap hotels and quiet beaches.
